When my wife and I were preparing to build our house a few years ago, solid
terrestrial connectivity was one of the top things on my must-have list,
because we both work from home the vast majority of the time.
It took some tenacity with the local FTTH provider to determine if they
served this are

Would this also extend to intentional actions that may have had unintended

I suspect many providers don't have good business processes for reclaiming
IP space that was assigned to customers who have either disconnected or
voluntarily returned the space.

I suspect that even if there was an entity with the reach to impose such a
tax, people will resort to deploying CGN more, to hide their IPv4 usage to
the extent possible. That's time, money, and effort taken away from moving
